or Open

This DTC sets when the Body Control Module B (BCM-B) detects an open or short to ground on the global open circuit.

Possible Causes

Global open not enabled in the message center RKE transmitter Door window regulator motor not initialized Wiring, terminals or connectors Body Control Module B (BCM-B)

PINPOINT TEST I : THE GLOBAL OPEN FUNCTION IS INOPERATIVE

I1 CHECK FOR BODY CONTROL MODULE B (BCM-B) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS)

Ignition ON. Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform Body Control Module B (BCM-B) self-test.

Is Body Control Module B (BCM-B) DTC B127A:12 or B127A:14 present?

Yes

For B127A:12, GO to I2 For B127A:14, GO to I7

No

GO to I13

I2 CHECK THE GLOBAL OPEN CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE

Ignition OFF. Disconnect: Body Control Module B (BCM-B) C4368A. Ignition ON.

NOTE: The LH and RH side window(s) each have their own global open circuits, however both of these circuits are tied together within the Body Control Module B (BCM-B). Measure:

Ground

Is any voltage present?

Yes

If voltage was present on the LH window circuit, GO to I3 If voltage was present on the RH window circuit, GO to I4

No

GO to I17

I3 CHECK THE GLOBAL OPEN CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE WITH THE LH (LEFT-HAND) FRONT WINDOW MOTOR DISCONNECTED

Ignition OFF. Disconnect: Driver Door Window Regulator Motor C518. Ignition ON. Measure:

Click to display connectors

Positive Lead

Measurement / Action

Negative Lead

C4368A-10
